Jewel of the Month: Carelle’s Bespoke Emerald Ring

September 3, 2014byBrittany Siminitz

Carelle‘s one-of-a-kind Bespoke emerald ring locked in firm admiration from me on first sight. It’s no wonder why: The 8.52 ct. Zambian emerald is an enchanting green that glows calmly from the center. Its platinum setting, hand-set with 200 diamonds ensconced in the split-shank and oval-shape halo, complements the stone perfectly. It doesn’t scream, shout, or dare to get too in your face. It doesn’t need to for you to be hooked. That’s what I love so much about this ring—as much as I enjoy out-there designs that you don’t see coming and going (and boy, do I), it’s the, let’s call it, detailed simplicity that makes this piece so appealing. It’s the high-quality craftsmanship, the wearability, and, of course, the color. It could be an everyday piece, even an engagement ring if one so chooses. But I wouldn’t blame the wearer for making this a special-occasion piece, either. It really is that special. Others seem to agree, making this $350,000 stunner our Jewel of the Month!
